Where did you put l3p? I think the instructions said to place it in a
directory which is in your PATH statement, like c:\windows. Then l3p will run
from anywhere, and the POV files (at least by default) end up in the directory
you are running it from. Try running it from your LDraw directory, as this
removes the need for the LDRAWDIR variable to be working correctly (which
seems to be a problem for many people to get just right).
Sorry you're having trouble with l3p. I've found it one the most reliable
pieces of software I've ever used.
